What are the lowest scores for a round of golf ever recorded on the Champions Tour? So far, there has been only one sub-60 round, but also 14 rounds of 60. Let's find out which 50-and-over golfers have gone the lowest on the world's top senior circuit.

The 18-Hole Champions Tour Record: 59

Sutherland had a shot at 58 (even 57), but he bogeyed the final hole of the round. But Sutherland's round started with seven birdies and an eagle — he was 9-under after eight holes. He shot 28 on the front nine and 31 on the back nine.

Alas, it wasn't enough for Sutherland to win the tournament. He finished in 12th place.

After Aoki became the first golfer on the Champions Tour to shoot 60 in 1997, it was five years before another golfer did it. But when Walter Morgan did it in 2002, it was worth the wait. Morgan was 61 years old at the time, and he became the youngest golfer to shoot his age or better on a pro golf tour.
